Palm Oil Biodiesel

In this study, the performance and emission of a thermal barrier coating (TBC) engine which applied palm oil biodiesel and diesel as a fuel were evaluated. TBC was prepared by using a series of mixture consisting different blend ratio of yttria stabilized zirconia (Y2O3·ZrO2) and aluminum oxide-silicon oxide (Al2O3·SiO2) via plasma spray coating technique. The experimental results showed that mixture of TBC with 60% Y2O3·ZrO2 + 40% Al2O3·SiO2 had an excellent nitrogen oxide (NO), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and unburned hydrocarbon (HC) reductions compared to other blend-coated pistons. The finding also indicated that coating mixture 50% Y2O3·ZrO2 + 50% Al2O3·SiO2 had the highest brake thermal efficiency (BTE) and lowest of brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) compared to all mixture coating. Reductions of HC and CO emissions were also recorded for 60% Y2O3·ZrO2 + 40% Al2O3·SiO2 and 50% Y2O3·ZrO2 + 50% Al2O3·SiO2 coatings. These encouraging findings had further proven the significance of TBC in enhancing the engine performance and emission reductions operated with different types of fuel.

The Impact

Under the sponsorship of the Canadian Department of National Defence, the Engine Laboratory of the National Research Council of Canada has evaluated the influence of applying a thermal barrier coating on the performance of a gas turbine engine. The effort is aimed at quantifying the performance effects of a particular ceramic coating on the first stage turbine vanes. The long term objective of the program is to both assess the relative change in engine performance and compare against the claimed benefits of higher possible turbine inlet temperatures, longer time in service and increased time between overhauls. The engine used for this evaluation was the Allison T56 turboprop with the first stage turbine nozzles coated with the Chromalloy RT-33 ceramic coating. The issues addressed in testing this particular type of hot section coating were; 1) effect of coating thickness on nozzle effective flow area; 2) surface roughness influence on turbine efficiency; This paper describes the project objectives, the experimental installation, and the results of the performance evaluations. Discussed are performance variations due to coating thickness and surface roughness on engine performance characteristics. As the performance changes were small, a rigorous measurement uncertainty analysis is included. The coating application process, and the affected overhaul procedures are examined. The results of the pre- and post-coating turbine testing are presented, with a discussion of the impact on engine performance.
